Miraflores Cup 2008 featuring different sports competitions like basketball, badminton, boxing and chess. The Municipal Sports Development Council will sponsor these competitions which will start on December 28, 2007.

Holding sports competitions requires expenses which the MSDC cannot resolve. For this reason, we are soliciting financial support from you as sponsor of the competitions in the amount of FIVE THOUSAND PESOS (PhP 5,000.00) PESOS for we believe that with your assistance we can successfully hold these competitions.
